Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. FLEISCHMANN. Madam Speaker, I rise in support of this, the fourth bill.

At a time of adversity, I would like to reach out to my colleagues on both sides of the aisle. The American people are concerned, but we are optimistic. The American people are worried, but we will come through this adversity. I think of the people I represent in Tennessee, but we are coming together as a Nation during this time like I have never seen us come together before. At a time of difficulty, we have an opportunity to actually seize this moment and move our great Nation forward. So, yes, am I concerned? Yes, I am concerned. Of course, I am. But we will see better days in this great Nation.

Madam Speaker, let us never forget, we in this Chamber represent the people of the greatest Nation in the world. We shall prevail.
